Tags for question categories

I'm long dreaming about an ability to tag question categories (maybe quesitons too), and then filter them by that tags on various occasions (from listing and editing trought random questions to import/export). Tree hierarchy isn't sufficient. I have a category tree organizied by topic in the course, but then on the each topic I have one demo, several training and many control categories. And sometimes I need something to be done with all demo categories or something like that.

Tags can support hierarchy with optional (!) parent field, so everything can be converted to tags if you like. But in search, import/export or random question user should have a possibility to use several tags (combined by AND, maybe by OR too) instead of a category. --Oleg Sychev 19:02, 15 October 2009 (UTC)
